"Battery Park City and the Authority are not just about the buildings – it’s about the character of the community that has developed over time. Public space has had a new renaissance in New York City, but here in Battery Park City is where it started."

NORTH BATTERY PARK CITY RESILIENCY PROJECT: JOINT PUBLIC MEETING

The North Battery Park City Resiliency Project will span BPC’s North Esplanade and entail a deployable barrier crossing West Street / Route 9A. This area represents one of BPC’s (and Lower Manhattan’s) most vulnerable points for storm surge inundation and flooding.

Pursuant to a competitive bidding process, in March 2019 BPCA selected AECOM to perform design services for the North BPC Resiliency Project. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2021 and be complete in 2023.

Please join BPCA, Manhattan Community Board 1, and the AECOM project team for the first in a series of public meetings about North Battery Park City Resiliency.
